"You'll help, right?"

Remarks on this volume

When I finished writing the previous chapter, I actually thought about whether I should just finish it, because looking back I realized that it took me three years to write this book without me noticing.

From when I was still in school, to internship, and then to work.

But when I wanted to finish it, I found that the story seemed not to be over yet.

Just write slowly, that’s what I told myself anyway.

Anyway, I am very grateful to the readers who are still reading this book.

This book won’t be finished yet.

Next, it is the story of Rafi entering the campus as the commander.

Just some peaceful daily routine… probably.

......

Volume: KanColle Laffey wants the port area

Chapter 1: New Commander Laffey!

Laffey is still a ship girl.

As it should be, since Laffey has no way to transform herself from a ship girl back into a human.

If you just want to get official assistance from Donghuang, then you can join the KanColle division as a KanColle and get unprecedented generous rewards.

No matter which war zone, a ship girl who is strong enough to defeat a boss-level Siren single-handedly will not be rejected.

For example, War-weary has always wanted Laffey to join the Donghuang KanColle division.

If Rafi were alone, he might consider this proposal.

But Rafi is not alone, Rafi also has a "family".

The families formed by ship girls are mostly loose, and most of the time they just live together, because it is easier to get commissions by teaming up together. There are many examples of forming a team today and disbanding tomorrow if there is a better option.

There will definitely be feelings.

But most of the ship girls are strong, and there is no saying that one cannot survive without the other.

The better choice is naturally the commander.

Wandering ship girls are not as good as the free ship girls in the ship girl division.

The free ship girls in the ship girl division are not as good as the port ship girls with commanders.

At least in terms of quality of life.

It is often joked that the port commander cannot control his hands and likes to use the hard-earned resources for large-scale construction. However, no matter how bad the commander is, he will not let his ship girls go hungry.

If something like this were to happen, the gendarmerie would be no joke.

Moreover, when it comes to resources, human governments often give priority to commanders.

This is the truth.

To put it more extremely, ship girls were born because of commanders. Many free ship girls do not have commanders simply because there are no suitable partners, not that they do not want to find one.

To deny the existence of the commander is to deny the significance of the birth of the ship girl, and to deny Laffey herself.

Because Rafi was human before he was Rafi.

When Rafi was with the Royal Ark and the others, he subconsciously thought of himself as a commander.

She is a ship girl and also a commander.

Therefore, you must become a commander.

This world is ultimately dominated by humans. As long as you want to gain a foothold in this world, it is impossible to separate yourself from a society made up of humans.

That is, as a ship girl, she cannot escape the fate of being rescued by the commander from the moment she is born.

Wild ship girls, free ship girls, powerful ship girls, weak ship girls, as long as they are ship girls without commanders, they are ship girls that can be salvaged if rounded up.

Whether you can salvage the boat or not is one thing, but as a commander, what's the difference between not salvaging the boat and being a salted fish?

The problem lies here.

When I was salvaging the boat, I was laughing and joking. It didn’t matter whether I could salvage it or not. What mattered was participation.

As a result, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, and it turns out that it is also the one being caught.

Rafi realized the seriousness of the problem.

No matter how good her relationship with the Ark Royal is, a ship girl is a ship girl. No commander would give up the idea of ​​salvaging the ship just because the Ark Royal followed a ship girl named Laffey and the Prince of Wales followed a ship girl named Laffey.

It's not that I'm worried that they will be taken away, but as long as the ship girls following Laffey are not labeled as port ship girls, there will continue to be commanders appearing. I believe that with sincerity, there will be a way.

Even Warspite and Glory had no way to stop the commanders from coming to salvage the ship, because from an objective point of view, the commanders who came to salvage the ship were just doing something that any normal person would do.

It's not a bad thing to salvage a boat.

So I want to be a commander.

So I want the port area.

Commanders do not poach other commanders' men. This is a tacit understanding among commanders.

Any commander who dares to make a move on another person's ship girl will be spat on, ostracized, or even brought to a military court in serious cases.

Therefore, if you don’t want commanders to come and salvage ships one after another in the future, then becoming a commander and having your own port area is the best way.

"Anyway, that's what Senior Lafite told me."

Facing Guanghui's questioning, Zhan Yan remained calm: "Senior Laffey is different from us. She is a ship girl that is completely different from the concept of 'ship girl'."

"We can't keep Senior Laffi hiding her identity forever. As long as she continues to be active as a ship girl, she will definitely come into the public eye and become a dream ship girl in the eyes of human commanders."

"Do you know where this will lead to?"

'Sister Rafi will leave.'

Guanghui answered silently in his heart.

Once you enter the sight of humans as a ship girl, troubles will follow.

Even if there is no intention to rescue Laffey, knowing that there is such a powerful ship girl, would the human leaders have some unrealistic fantasies?

For example, further advancing the front?

Humanity's coastal defenses have not changed since the turmoil ten years ago.

Ten years is enough time to change a lot.

The number of ship girls has experienced explosive growth since the appearance of the construction machine.

As long as the ship girls who were born ten years ago have worked hard until now, even if their training level has not reached level 80, they are probably not far from becoming quasi-legendary ship girls.

Most of these ship girls are under the command of human commanders.

The pattern between humans and ship girls is slowly changing. As time goes by, the number of highly trained ship girls that humans lack is gradually making up.

It probably won’t be long before even legendary ship girls with a training level of over level 90 will appear in large numbers in the port areas of human commanders.

By then, humans will no longer need to rely on free ship girls like them.

"I will write in the report that Senior Laffi left with the META ship girls belonging to Ember after the battle. As long as Senior Laffi is not there, I believe they will be more or less concerned about the existence of those humanoid sirens."

No matter what, they must delay the time for humans to launch a war against the Sirens as much as possible. The war will come sooner or later. They only hope that they will become strong enough by the moment the war begins.

"Could it be that Sister Lafei had already guessed our thoughts, so she took the initiative to hide her identity and chose to protect us in another way?"

"I'm afraid that's it."

Otherwise, War-weary would never have thought of the reason why Lafite must become the commander.

"Come to think of it, school starts today, right?"

"Well, this year we at Tianhai have recruited ninety commanders. Including Senior Lafei, there are ninety-one of them, which is one-fifth more than last year."

"Haha, I suddenly want to see Rafi wearing a conductor

It looks like an officer's uniform."

When Guanghui said this, War-weary was immediately moved.

"Ms. Guanghui, as the dean of the Donghuang Commander Academy, on this important day, I think I should meet these rookie commanders."

"Hehe~, there are many kids in my fleet who want to find a commander. Maybe I can find some good candidates among these newcomers."

"Then, together?"

......

At this time, Rafi was standing in the auditorium of Tianhai Commander Academy with a group of humans, listening to the old people on the podium giving words of encouragement to the newcomers.

After standing in the auditorium for half an hour, Rafi could no longer hold on.

"sleepy!"

......

Chapter 2: Glory: My favorite commander

If you want Minato, you have to become a commander; if you want to become a commander, you have to go to school.

The truth is this.

"Why do I have to start from the first grade? Can't they just put me in the graduating class?"

Rafi complained a little in his heart.

The Commander College's curriculum is the same as most universities, which is a four-year program. In theory, as long as you complete enough credits, you can skip a grade and graduate early.

But most commanders won't do that.

Because graduation means losing the resources provided by the academy, and everything has to start from scratch. If you are a commander with more than two ship girls, you can directly apply for a port. No matter how many resources the school provides, you will not earn much more than if you manage your own port seriously.

However, the conditions are very harsh.

In Tianhai Commander Academy, if you want to graduate early, you first need to complete enough credits to graduate in four years, and then have two ship girls with a training level of more than 50.

The former is relatively easy, but most commanders cannot do the latter.

Lafite is different.

What bothers Rafi is the credits. It would be better for her to fight with Empress than to give up her sleeping time to study useless knowledge seriously.

“I don’t know if there’s a trick.”

Rafi murmured quietly in her heart, most of the teachers in the Commander Academy are Ship Girls, and she wondered if she could bribe all the Ship Girls in charge of the subjects, or let War-weary put pressure on the Ship Girls who set the questions to leak the answers to her in advance.

Although they are all crooked ways, Lafite doesn't think he is wrong.

What's the point of a ship girl learning the commander's knowledge?

This is because the examination for commanders is very strict. A commander who has not attended a commander school will never be recognized by the Maritime Administration. She does not need to stand here with a group of students as punishment.

But just because of her height, she was still the one standing at the front.

Almost half of the commanders looked at her.

"so small!"

"Is she also the commander?"

"It's not the ship girl, is it?"

"When I came in just now, I saw that it seemed like a very cute child."

"I really want to take it home and raise it!"

He quickly extended his soul network and found that the person who had this idea was a female commander, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The world is so realistic.

If it's two girls, no one will think there's anything wrong even if they sleep in the same bed. At most, they will just think that they have a good relationship.
